Paul v Felix n Festus
Equity Rule #1
"Stocks inflate on expectations, and deflate upon reality".
Lao Beiji Shong
‘Strive to have a conscience without offense to either God or man’, so stated Saul the Pharisee, now "Paul" of Taursus, Cilicia (Asia Minor) to the Roman Governor Felix of Caesarea when during the continued reign of Caesar Augustus, Paul was confronted by the Jewish attorney Tertullus who was representing the Temple of Jerusalem, and the high priest Ananias in their charges against Paul.
Paul had been bound over to Felix by the Roman Commander Lysius to prevent a riot in Jerusalem, and to protect Paul’s life, Paul being a Roman citizen by birth.
This exchange between Paul and Governor Felix occurred years before the Romans destroyed the second Temple in Jerusalem which had been refurbished and expanded upon by King Herod the Great and his son King Herod Antipaether during the days before and leading up to the ministry of Jesus, the Christ.
After the upcoming siege of Jerusalem, the Romans carried away all of the second Temple treasury and all of the second Temple artifacts back to Rome for parade and display.
Now, under the reign of the third Herod, King Agrippa…
As leader of the sect of Nazareans, Paul was declared "a plague" by Tertullus in front of Governor Felix.
Governor Felix’s response was to keep Paul under guard in Caesarea for another two years until the arrival of the new Governor Porcius Festus.
Upon the arrival of Festus, the new governor was at a loss as to how to bundle an appropriate charge against Paul in order to deliver him to Caesar’s court in Rome, as Paul known to be a Roman citizen under rumors of ambush by the Jewish authorities, had opted for Caesar’s judgment seat in lieu of accepting a return to Jerusalem to be tried by Festus there himself.
Festus then reasoned the matter would be better served at an audience invoking the Judean King Agrippa, if only to discern what elusive charge, if any, that had occurred involving Paul, thus allowing Festus the ability to properly pen and attach to Paul the presentable charges required to hear a case in Rome.
"Why should it be thought incredulous to you that God should raise the dead!" exclaimed Paul to King Agrippa and Governor Festus remembering Exodus 22:28 which states "You shall not speak evil to a ruler of your people."
‘For the Sadducees and the Pharisees debate the existence of angels and spirits to this day’, though Paul simply stated that he was merely not being disobedient to the heavenly vision he had incurred on the road to persecuting even more members of "The Way" in Damascus, Syria. Members of "The Way" preach ‘the doing of works worthy of repentance’.
Festus then retorted, "Too much learning is driving you insane, Paul!"
To which Paul replied "Not!", and promptly petitioned the King for understanding to which Agrippa replied, "If you had only not appealed to Caesar, you may have been set free!"
Thus ends the story as told by Luke of how Paul was sent to Rome to become a witness with Peter, to both Roman gentiles and Roman jews alike.

First Book of Moses "Charas Parvati"
As published in The Economist Magazine, July 23, 2009.
Where did this magical plant originate?
Answer : Day Three of Creation Week from the Book of Moses
“Onto the earth, and it was so.”
“And, the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields seed according to its kind, and the fruit tree that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind.”
“And, God saw that it was good.”
“So, the evening and the morning were the third day.”

‘He Blew, and They Were Scattered’
As published in The Economist Magazine, July 23, 2009.
With reference to Queen Elizabeth I, after winning decisively her battle for ‘The Throne’ against an ‘Invincible’ Spanish Armada led by King Philip of Spain, circa 1588 CE.
As in all generations, the ’spawn of the victors’ attempts to understand the sufferings of their fathers and mothers, at the expense of the unconditionally defeated, only to realize the winds of time have drifted far beyond their ability to comprehend the time-table of the Almighty, the lunacy of a past possessed people and their inexorable fuehrer, the past greatness of the ‘island nations’ of the west versus the continental powers, and the untraceable bonds of the combative foot soldiers.
We should remember World War II (WWII) for what it truly was…a social experiment of the corrupt to impose Darwinian inhumanness on targeted peoples of extinction.
Thank God the Americans had the backbone, the courage and the togetherness to act with valor and unconquerable indignant moral righteousness towards the specter of absolutely repugnant immoralism for the future betterments of the English nation, the French nation, the Chinese nation, the Russian nation, the Japanese nation, the Korean nations, the Arab World, the Hindu World, the Moslem World, and every and any nation so comprised today or then of any remnant what-so-ever to emerge or remain from the enveloping unbridled global hell that was the 20th century’s World War II and Cold War aftermath of Communist insurgency as brought upon us by our beleaguered specie ancestors.
Today we can look forward to not more of the same, but to continued extension of the grand benefit received from a people called the ‘Americans’, the true light bringers of truth, prosperity, justice and fortitude as received by no less obvious a gift of divine intervention.
"He blew, and they were scattered" should be forever indelibly stamped on every coin minted in commemoration of all wars, past, present and future to establish the moral compass directive required by our leaders to keep our globe safe from the human annihilations of our own devices.

“Come to the Light”
“He who performs the truth comes to ‘The Light’, lest his or her deed not be clearly seen.”
“For ‘The Light’ has come into this world not to discern those who love the dark, but to rather reveal what has been done by God.”
Jesus of Nazareth aka ‘The Christ’, circa 30 CE
See: John 3: 19-21
